Yura, you caught my attention with your comment........I went and pulled my "Pro Modeler" '69 Charger off the shelf and checked the tires in the kit.....you are completely correct about the raised white lettering. Revell imprinted them too far to the outside............obviously, I never looked at the tires in that kit as I plan to use the AMT Poly-glass tires in the parts pack for this car as they were on my buddies car back in the day. You didn't do it wrong, they did.

But as I looked at the Revell tires from the kit it became obvious to me that the lettering is very faintly molded on the tire, may I ask how you got such a "Clean" paint job on them? They look so perfectly painted that I thought they were decals and not paint................so please share your method, I am very curious how you did it.

I stand corrected....even though the lettering is too far our, you did not create the issue.

Sharpened toothpick white paint Revell aqua painted each letter.

Yuri, have you tried to paint white line and red line tires with a Dremel tool?

This is one of the cars I would had painted a red line on the tire.

Fantastic build Yuri B)

Yes, strange indeed about the tyres.....you could always swap them with the AMT round 2 styles ;)

Yuri, Anything with your name attached is truly a work of art. I don't know how I missed this one on the first go round but worth a good look again. Well done.

Ken.
